Goings-on on the farm

It’s Asparagus Time!

One of my favorite things is growing crops that look the same in the ground as they do when purchased at the market, so it’s always a fun time of year when the asparagus starts poking above the ground! The first time I saw asparagus growing, I couldn’t believe what it looked like- it’s as if someone took a bunch of asparagus from the grocery store and stuck it in the ground. As the first crop to mature each year on the farm, the beginning of asparagus season is always a great way to welcome in the coming growing season. If you live in the area and are interested in purchasing some asparagus in the next 6 weeks, send me an email!
